Chapter 139 Why Do Monkeys Wear Short Skirts?
When Sun Wukong heard Jiang Feng say that he would lead him to fight his way up Mount Ling and storm the Heavenly Court, his blood boiled with excitement.
However, Sun Wukong did not agree with his claim that he was not the real Great Sage Equal to Heaven, and immediately thought of a way to reason with him using his golden cudgel.
However, the heavy Five Elements Mountain pressing down on him prevented him from moving, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from the mountain.
Jiang Feng had anticipated this. Sun Wukong's restless mind was unrestrained, his desires running rampant and without any constraints. The Guanyin mantra posted on the mountain was precisely the method used to subdue this restless mind.
The term "mind-monkey" refers to a person whose mind is difficult to tame, like that of a monkey. Therefore, various methods are used to control and subdue their mind.
It is a metaphor for the human heart being as restless and unpredictable as a monkey, difficult to tame.
If Sun Wukong can achieve a state of perfect harmony of mind and nature, this mantra will be useless. Otherwise, with his own magical power and supernatural abilities, he will be unable to escape the suppression of the Five Elements Mountain.
Jiang Feng watched silently from the side, and only continued after he calmed down: "You may not believe it, but we really are master and disciple."
"You have a magic staff that can grow bigger or smaller, longer or shorter, and I also have a magic weapon that can also grow longer or shorter."
Seeing Sun Wukong's suspicious look, Jiang Feng seemed to be provoked: "Monks don't speak in Buddhist scripts, I'll untie my belt and show you!"
Having said that, he unbuckled his belt.
The material of this waist belt is neither silk nor cloth, and it is connected in sections. It is actually a Ruyi telescopic hook made from the tail of a scorpion demon!
The scorpion demon's tail could extend and retract freely like the golden cudgel, and could also be used as a chain to bind people. After learning how to use it, Jiang Feng refined it into a belt to carry with him.
With a casual toss, his belt flew out, growing longer and longer until it reached the top of the mountain, where the hook caught on the very top rock.
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up, and he urged, "Hurry up and peel that talisman off, then I, Old Sun, can get out!"
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Don't be in such a hurry, you haven't agreed to become my disciple yet."
Sun Wukong eagerly said, "If you can release me and lead me to Mount Ling, I'd gladly become your disciple!"
Jiang Feng nodded in satisfaction: "I believe you. After all, the fate between us, master and disciple, is ordained by heaven."
Your name is Sun Wukong, and your name contains the character "Kong," which happens to be the generational name of the next generation at our Wishing Temple.
As your teacher, I belong to the "Tian" generation, and my Dharma name at Xuyuan Temple is Wutian.
Our sect's generational naming system has twelve characters in total. Once we run out, we start cycling back to the first one. These twelve characters, when put together, form the phrase: "The sky is azure, and outside the window are thousands of paper cranes."
Sun Wukong said earnestly, "Master, I'll remember this. If I ever take on a disciple, I'll definitely add the character '是' (shi) to their Dharma name."
Jiang Feng said with satisfaction, "Not bad, Wukong, you're very perceptive! Wait here, I'll go up and peel off the talisman right away!"
After saying that, he activated the Ruyi Telescopic Hook, which suddenly shortened, pulling Jiang Feng's body straight up to the mountaintop.
Looking at the talisman in front of him, Jiang Feng carefully recited the reverse of the Guanyin mantra.
This reverse curse was deliberately tricked by Mara when he impersonated Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, in order to prevent Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva from causing him trouble at this time.
After reciting the incantation, the talisman did not react at all. Jiang Feng frowned slightly and asked, "What's going on?" He reached out to peel off the yellow talisman.
Just as his hand was about to touch the talisman, a gentle breeze swept it away and took it to the hands of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the sky.
Looking at the talisman in his hand, which was made by the Buddha, he sighed softly.
He was worried about this talisman falling into Jiang Feng's hands. After all, Jiang Feng's thoughts were different from ordinary people. Who knew who he would use this talisman to suppress?
At this moment, Sun Wukong, who had been trapped under the mountain, suddenly felt a lightness on his body and excitedly exclaimed, "Master, come down! I, Old Sun, am about to get out!"
Jiang Feng used the Peng Transformation Technique to fly into the sky. Then, with a loud bang, the Five Elements Mountain exploded. Amidst the flying rocks, a figure soared into the sky, and a hearty laugh echoed throughout the Three Realms.
"Hahaha, I, Old Sun, am out!"
At the same time, almost all the gods and Buddhas in the Three Realms heard the laughter, and their faces showed different expressions.
At the mouth of the Guan River, Yang Jian said with bright eyes, "The monkey has been released. Since our last encounter, I haven't met an opponent who can make me go all out!"
A glint of light flashed in the Celestial Dog's eyes: "Master, you can go and fight him right now. I've already thought of an excuse: say that his broken rocks damaged our roof tiles! This time, we'll definitely extort two catties of braised beef from Jiang Feng!"
Yang Jian slapped the dog on the head: "What kind of braised beef is so delicious that you can't forget it after all this time?"
The Celestial Hound howled and smacked its lips, saying, "The beef that Jiang Feng cut off from the Bull Demon King's younger brother and braised it—the taste was truly unforgettable!"
Yang Jian: "————"
This Jiang Feng, he just can't stand not courting death every day!
After an unknown amount of time, the monkey took a bath and spent half a day playing in places like the Dragon Palace and Flower Fruit Mountain. Finally, he remembered Jiang Feng and somersaulted back to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, which had mostly collapsed.
At this time, Jiang Feng had already reunited with Sha Wujing and the others, and Ao Ying was happily eating the braised beef that Jiang Feng had specially saved for her.
Seeing Sun Wukong return wearing tattered clothes, Jiang Feng opened his bundle, took out half a monk's robe, and handed him a tiger-skin skirt.
"Wukong, change your clothes, and then I will give you the precepts."
Sun Wukong put on the monk's robe and tied on the tiger-skin skirt, scratching his head and saying, "Master, this tiger-skin skirt is beautiful, but don't you have a complete set of monk's robes? Why don't you just give me an old man's set?"
Jiang Feng replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's because I want to see you in a short skirt!"
Sun Wukong: "————"
A moment later, Jiang Feng took out a single-edged sword and bestowed upon him the Thirty-Six Vows of Buddhism, making him the senior disciple. He then introduced him to the people present.
"I don't need to introduce Ao Ying to you, you two have known each other longer than I have."
Sun Wukong chuckled and said, "I recognize her, I recognize her! This little girl is the aunt of the Old Dragon King of the East Sea. I just went to the East Sea Dragon Palace to confirm with the Old Dragon King!"
Jiang Feng then pointed to Bai Suzhen: "This is Bai Suzhen, the disciple of the Old Mother of Lishan."
Bai Suzhen greeted him with a smile, saying, "Greetings, Great Sage Sun."
Sun Wukong sized her up and immediately recognized her true form, waving his hand and saying, "No need for formalities, no need for formalities!"
Jiang Feng then pointed to Sha Wujing and the White Dragon: "This is your third junior brother Sha Wujing, and your fourth junior brother's reserve food."
The White Dragon roared in anger, "Master, that's enough! Eldest Brother, I am Ao Lie, the Third Prince of the West Sea Dragon King!"
Sun Wukong's eyes darted around as he sized up the little white dragon, teasingly asking, "You're the son of the Old Dragon King of the West Sea, so what should you call this little girl?"
The little white dragon said reluctantly, "Grandma!!"
Ao Ying laughed so hard she almost fell over: "Good boy, your grandma will treat you to beef!" With that, she generously picked up half a slice of beef and handed it to the little white dragon.
Little White Dragon: "————"
Don't you feel it's shabby at all that half a slice of beef, the size of a fingernail?
And I absolutely do not eat beef! I almost turned into a cow before!!
